Do Christians and Muslims worship the same God? Can Catholics engage respectfully with Islam without compromising the truth of the Gospel? How should Christians understand the Qur'an, Muhammad, Jesus, the Trinity, salvation, religious freedom, and interreligious dialogue?
This thoughtful and accessible book offers a distinctly Catholic response to some of the most important religious questions of our time.
This thoughtful and accessible book offers a distinctly Catholic response to some of the most important religious questions of our time.
Faithful to Sacred Scripture, Sacred Tradition, and the teaching of the Catholic Church, it examines both the genuine points of contact and the decisive differences between Christianity and Islam. It avoids two dangerous extremes, hostility towards Muslims and religious relativism.
Readers will discover:
It is designed for Catholics, catechists, clergy, seminarians, teachers, students, converts, interfaith workers, and anyone seeking a balanced Christian understanding of Islam.
The book's central conviction is simple: genuine respect does not require silence about religious differences. Catholics can listen carefully, speak truthfully, defend religious freedom, respect conscience, and bear courageous witness to Jesus Christ.
This is not a book of hostility or religious compromise. It is an invitation to encounter one another with charity, examine competing claims with reason, and approach the ultimate question with honesty:
Who is God, and how has he revealed himself?
Readers will discover:
- What Catholics and Muslims mean when they speak about God
- Why Arabic Christians also use the name ALLAH
- Whether Christians and Muslims can be said to worship the same God
- Why the Trinity is not a contradiction of monotheism
- How Islam understands Jesus, revelation, prophecy, and salvation
- How Catholic teaching evaluates Muhammad and the Qur'an
- Why Jesus Christ remains the definitive Revelation of God and the unique mediator of salvation
- How Catholics can practise dialogue without surrendering truth
- The difference between evangelisation and coercive proselytism
- Practical ways to speak with Muslim friends, neighbours, colleagues, and family members
